The cars were phenomenal. Loved seeing them at Daytona and Sebring every
year. Unfortunately the races usually weren't close lol....even shorter
races and not the two endurance ones I just mentioned.
@etb4u Quit trying to make up excuses. #1 there on the street not at a
prepped track. #2 All the races were from rolls except for the first one
witch will always favor the more powerful & more aerodynamic car (300ZX).
#3 you obviously don't know anything about 300zx's if you think low 13's is
the best a full bolt on Z can do. Last but not least, it's a family sedan.
It's not meant to be a performance car. It's front wheel drive, has soft
suspension, not a manual, no low center of gravity......
good luck with that shit on handling, you can't handle to well if the tie
rod snaps, thats what happend to my friend he was just driving on the road
and next min. he's wrapped around a tree the cobra only had 40k on it if
you give me a motor/tranny with a few kinks alright whatever but a tie rod
snapping can kill you replace the tie rods asap with upgraded ones it's
worth your life, lucky for my friend it hit on the on the right side of the
car they said if it hit the other side he'd be dead
Seriously dude, i've been working with these cars for a long time. My GTP
is cammed, has P&P heads, LIM, and blower, double roller timing set, 3"
pulley,headers, 42.5# injectors, alt rewire, fuel pump rewire, swirl
polished valves, 105# springs, milled retainers and titanium locks. I'm
currently running my old tune for the 3.4 pulley and stock cam, and i would
guarantee that my car would take yours. That GTP definitely didn't sound
modded. BTW, the fart cans on the 300 are a nice touch...
@etb4u But it's more typical to run 13's and there are more variables.
There's no way in hell mid 12's on street tires is typical, so no it's not
a slow time. I never said it wasn't possible. Your living in a world of
perfection. Roll racing helps to take away driver skill, so you can truly
see which car is faster, so it was pretty fair game in that respect. I also
happen to know both owners very well. The cars are well taken care of and
healthy. The faster car won. End of discussion.
C'mon bro that is complete BULLSHIT ! A 3. inch pulley on a gtp delivers 15
psi and is good for mid 12's consistantly in the 1/4mile with supporting
mods. A stock Twin turbo zx300 produces 13 psi and will run high 13's low
14's. Dont try to feed me a spoonful of bullshit. A stock gtp has 33 lb
injectors, and you say this guy has 32# injectors??? lol. You need at least
42 lb injectors to balance the air/fuel ratio on a gtp with a 2.8 inch
pulley. Google some stats and try again.
I got a 98 gtp my bud has a 05. We ran with almost the same mods 3.4 pulley
u bend/ resonator delete and and in fender cai. Honestly he pulled barely
on me everytime. Currently doing a gen v top swap with colder plugs and a
pcm from zzp. Once get tuned we running again. He is replacin fuel pump and
porting his charger.... that is after he fixes his wife meeting the
tailgate of a ram lol
You are correct, the GTP had 42.5 lb injectors. I hope you didn't lose too
much sleep over it. It also was using a 3.0 pulley for the races as the 2.8
was causing belt slip. Since I was the one who modded and raced the GTP at
the track I am well aware of what people imagine what they actually do.
Just FYI a stock 300ZX creates 9.5 psi of boost. Maybe you should re-Google
you stats.
lol so basically rebuild the engine spend thousandsto beat a ZX with basic
mods, and you still got a rubbish american car that dont go around corners?
There is nothing worse than people who say stuff like, spend $5 million and
it will be a diff story. U can make a Lada beat a ferrari if you spend
enough. Those 300zx's are scary fast with very little work.
@MrKing651 Go to 3800 Pro forum and check the FWD 1/4 runs. There are loads
of GP's that run 10's, 9's, and 8's. All have the 3.8 modified. Never doubt
a GP, they are fast stock and lightning fast modified. You sir, are a
disrespectfull person. I like that 300ZX and tuners like the S2000, so
therefore i am not biased in any way.
I love to see a new GP 04 to 08 vs GP 97 to 03. Race with non supercharged.
Then race with GTP old and new. That be cool and interesting. I know the
new one has 260hp and 280 torque. Old one 240hp and torque the same. But it
doesn't matter with 20hp more. Well i will see if there will be sometime on
here. Just wondering lol.
yea slight problem you can't break boost a supercharger. a turbo you can
let spool but a supercharger you need the belts moving to spin the turbine
meaning unless your moving you can't really break boost. he did however use
the break and get up to about 2,500 rpm i can tell because there wasnt much
wheel spin.
actually i had a stock 02 gtp coupe and beat a s2k to about 70...granted
the girl couldnt launch car worth a shit...i beat her twice....an integra
and an rx8 on the highway...a prelude SI, came damn close to a modded GSX
and Modded GST. GP arent the fastest cars but theyre not bad for the big
car they are.
Wow a modded 300zx against a stock gtp. C'mon. Lets see that against a gtp
with a smaller supercharger pulley. And don't try to say the 300 is stock,
b/c I at least can see the exhaust, and my 97 series 2 kept up with 06 350
z's and 06 mustang gt's the same as the one in this vid did with that 300zx.
@96stealth Learn to pay attention before you post. This wasn't on the
track. Of course. But if you actually read what the fuck was going on,
you'd see it was mentioned this GTP ran mid 13s. Which if you weren't so
fucking lazy, you could look up and see that's a slow time for the mods on
that car
Put a turbo conversion kit with intercooler on that GTP and that would be
quite a challenge. GTP has good low end power, but once it reaches 3rd
gear, the high end power dies down due to the supercharger. Supercharger is
used mostly for low end power. I would put a turbo on that GTP.

This would be much better if you could upload the original video instead of
recording the video playing on a TV. The audio in particular is, let's say,
disappointing like this. Not sure where in the world you are but nearly
